Those Myiarchus flycatchers are tough. And if you thought Ash-throated looked like the others (which it does), you're gonna love trying to tell it apart from Nutting's!! Formerly a quite rare vagrant, but it looks like now we can add another species of Myiarchus to those known to breed in the U.S.: http://phainopeplafables.com/2013/04/21/nuttings-flycatcher-confirmed-breeding/

All great stuff. Some of those flycatchers are endlessly confusing to me. D

Don't have a camera to contribute any good pictures of my own, but figure I can at least add some funny pics from the web to contribute. As usual, great shots being posted by everyone.

here is a funny ass video from BBC that has some birds in it.

Hmm. perhaps his name is not Allen, Steve! Steve! Steve!!

Yup, that's the one Ron, can't get that one out of my head. The beat boxing Chipmunk is funny as hell too.

I've gone back and rewatched the video as well and laugh each time.

Bring lots of photos back Bob! Can't wait to see. We went to Costa Rica a few years back. Big arse field guide there too!!

dee ee, Ash-throated's song is pretty distinctive, for a Myiarchus.


Despite the threat to my reputation I was forced to expose myself to some
rocks for the last three days. But in return this fellow, and there is no
doubt he is a fellow given his territorial assertiveness, exposed himself
to me...

I think he needs to get to the tailocurist, don't you?

I saw little else of interest at this godforsaken wilderness of rocks other
than a very nice Black-throated Grey Warbler who caught me with my camera down.

Did see this primitive bird though - pretty impressive up close and personable, eh?
Dude was really crushing it on this slab and I thought he was in no
danger of growing titties.

Wow Reilly, great one of the Cactus W!

Whoo hoo, the Tanagers are here. I had one in the yard (also one last week up in Silverado)and then 4 (2 male and 2 female)at Irvine Pk. today.

Love Western Tanagers. If it ever quits snowing in Boulder, I'll leave the house and possibly see one. :)
